Riding out the storm

We have just returned from a wonderfully relaxing week in Dunure. The weather was absolutely shocking for most of the time but we didn't mind in the least. Lots of quiet time reading. And some not so quiet time playing family board games (we are a competitive bunch and take Monopoly seriously!). Needless to say I took my sewing machine and managed a few hours working on the small Dunure pieces. I set my sewing machine up near a window that looks out to sea - the cottage is only a few feet from the beach. I probably would have done more sewing but the view was wonderfully distracting.

Dunure is on the Ayrshire coast so took a beating from Storm Abigail. The worst of the weather hit overnight whilst we were asleep but we did take a quick walk out the following morning to take some photos. The sea was pretty magnificent!
